Request for Assistance to Increase Export Timeout for Power BI Paginated Reports

Hi Team,

We are currently encountering an issue with the export functionality of Power BI paginated reports. The export operation is limited to 60 minutes, which corresponds to the lifespan of the user access token issued by Azure Active Directory (AAD).

In our scenario, certain reports require more than 60 minutes to complete the export due to their complexity and size. As the token expires after 60 minutes, the export operation fails, creating a significant bottleneck for our reporting process.

We would like to understand if there is any configuration or solution available to:

  1. Extend the token lifetime for export operations.
  2. Allow the export operation to continue seamlessly beyond the current token expiration period.
  3. Implement a workaround for long-running report exports.

We appreciate your guidance and support in resolving this issue to ensure smooth operations for our reporting needs.

Status: Investigating

Hi  @SenthilGopal ,

 

 

The maximum lifetime of the token in minutes can be specified, but it cannot be extended beyond the default expiration time.

For now we would suggest break down the report into smaller sections and export them separately. Alternatively, optimize the report to reduce the export time.

 

Best regards.
